Biodiversity is the mixture and cooperation of all the living things in one area. In every environment there are multiple different life forms and a connection with how they function together. Each life form has a different quality that makes it essential to their environment; it offers a unique way of life that others have not seen before. This can be seen in all different types of diversity, especially for cultural diversity. The only issue is that cultural diversity is dying, and before we know it, too much of the information will be lost to save it.
The same way that we are worried about losing diversity among species is the way we should approach the issue of cultural diversity. There are many laws in place that protect wildlife and other plant life from extinction. Yet the government is not doing much to protect the cultural diversity among our nation. I think that if the government is going to be responsible for protecting the population of diversity, then they should take on the responsibility of protecting their culture as well. We are worried about creating all similar species, in the rare chance of catching diseases or developing abnormalities. Yet, the government is not worried about our cultures blending. I am aware that many countries separate state and church, but I need to make it clear that cultural diversity does not revolve around religion.
I understand that many governments are working to protect animals and plants due to their involuntary damage from humans. Also that plants and animals are unable to voice their opinions about the topic either. The government is trying to fix what us humans have impacted on the earth, but this is still a human impact, on our own species. Therefore, we need to continue to pick up where we messed up, and save our cultural diversity while we still have the resources needed to do so.
